The Waveline Media Display is a great solution for companies that want one display system that can reconfigure into different sizes and layouts. You can easily use this display in a 10×10 booth space for one show and then use it in a 10×20 booth space for another. It is even possible to create effective 20×20 island display layout by adding a tension fabric hanging sign. The frame of the display is similar to that of a hanging sign. It consists of aluminum tubing and tension fabric pillow case graphics making setup a breeze. This booth has everything most custom modular displays offer without the setup hassle or expensive shipping costs.

Follow these six tips to help make your next trade show more worthwhile and increase the return you get out of each show. Attending shows doesn’t have to be a mystery anymore use these points below as a roadmap to guide you through the experience.

1. Keep track of your ROI – Make sure your leads generated (or goals) outweigh the cost of the show. To help reach your goals, try to contact potential leads before the show and set up appointments with them to ensure you’re getting quality time with decision makers. If nothing else, the pre-contact will direct them to your booth and make for warmer conversation. As with any form of advertising you have to look at the ROI or ROG (return on goals). Have the mindset that having a booth is an investment. The more you do to help your investment, the better your return will be. Don’t be that company that gets a booth space, puts zero thought into the display, sits back and expects business to walk right up and introduce itself. It might happen but we wouldn’t bet on you.

2. Become part of the show – Most trade shows or conferences have a keynote speaker and several other presenters. If you can’t manage to get on the main stage or become a presenter, all is not lost. Come up with some sort of event at your booth to help get word about your company out there. This will generate more leads but will also help to incorporate your company into part of the overall event.

3. Leads are great but appointments are better – Try to have reps get appointments instead of leads and you’ll be surprised at the results. To further that point, aside from having goals try to work in a competition amongst your team to see who can generate the most, leads, appointments, business, whatever applies the most to your situation. Keep your booth space fun and make winning worthwhile.

4. Be a solution not a pest – This might seem contradictory to the point above but it makes sense if your reps are doing it right. Try not to make people feel like they are being sold while spending time at your booth. Always try to present your company as consultative in nature. You want to come across as being an expert in your field but also being THE solution to a problem, not a pest. It helps to have your best reps in your booth space.

5. Don’t forget about your neighbors – Network with the other vendors and where applicable see if you can share leads with each other, assuming it isn’t a competitor. If your company was able to generate 250 leads and your neighbor generated 250 leads, then together you’ve generated 500 leads, remove some of the overlap and your contacts from the show still grew by a large number. If nothing else, a good connection may lead to referrals down the road. After all, these events are to generate contacts, business, and traffic.

6. Make your booth space unique – Design your booth space to separate you from the other companies exhibiting around you. If your booth looks like the one to the left and right of it, leads are much more likely to pass by. You want prospects taking notice of your company and being intrigued by what you have to offer. With so many eyes upon your company, these events are not the time to second-guess your trade show display.

Are you currently using an iPad or tablet as part of your business? Imagine the opportunities that would present themselves if you were able to use one in your trade show booth. Many successful exhibitors are now using these devices to further interact with clients. One option is to simply have the iPad at your booth. Another option is to make the iPad part of your display using an iPad Kiosk Stand.

Benefits of using an iPad Kiosk:

Security

Professional Look

Our featured iPad kiosks all have a classic and professional look to them. While most people are familiar with tablets, they are not familiar with them as part of a display. This can leave a lasting impression that your company is cutting edge and ahead of the curve. We try to leave no stone unturned in the science of trade show displays and we believe the more you have at your disposal during client interaction the more successful you will be. Having a iPad kiosk stand as part of your display will give you that power while keeping your booth space uncluttered. Some models even allow you to incorporate traditional marketing materials on the kiosks stand, such as literature racks and counters.

Security

The benefits of being able to use a tablet are numerous but it will do you no good if it disappears during the show. One way to ensure that your tablet doesn’t go missing is to incorporation into the display itself. If the iPad can’t be incorporated in the kiosk then it comes with a lock case that allows you to keep your tablet under lock and key.

Branding

Certain kiosks give you the ability to add branding. This allows you to tie your booth space together and add depth while keeping your logo or company name as visible as possible. If you desire the clean sleek look then simply order a tablet kiosk without branding to get the look you desire.

The objective of exhibiting at a trade show can vary but generally it is to promote yourself as well as your business, to gain clients, and drive sales. The objective of the trade show display is to draw people towards your space, to keep them there, and make you look professional and stand out from the crowd. Adding some depth to your booth space can help attract people into your booth space from the walk way but what if you want to attract people from across the room or conference center?

This is where hanging trade show signs can help you achieve your objectives in a way other products can’t. You don’t have to worry about sight lines taking away from your brand with a hanging sign. This also adds another dimension to your trade show display, height.

Once you’ve made the decision to add a hanging sign to your display, you will still need to consider a few things. What shape will work best with your space and design theme? What size will you need? Do you want the capability for the sign to rotate?

Shapes:

We have a variety of shapes to fit all your needs, from a circular design, tapered circular (larger at the top, smaller at the bottom), ellipse oval, three varieties of triangle (regular, tapered, and curved), square, and a curved square design.

The sizes available are different for each shape, but typically come in three different lengths and widths but may vary by product. The signs can range from 8 – 15 feet long and 14” – 48” tall but will vary by the shape. These products pack a big punch but are very portable and easy to assemble.

Rotation:

The ultimate luxury is to have a hanging sign that rotates. Not only will your logo be displayed above your competition, but it will be visible from multiple angles, with a rotation hanging sign, your logo will be visible from nearly anywhere on the trade show floor meaning you won’t have to worry which

side your logo is facing. Exhibitors comment on how the rotation of the hanging sign not only looks great but also draws a lot of attention from prospective clients. The rotating motor comes in three different sizes to go along with the size of the sign, the larger the sign is the larger the motor capacity needs to be. No matter the size, the standard rotating speed is 2 RPM.

Companies spend a lot of time and money trying to differentiate themselves from the competition. Hanging trade show signs are a great way to differentiate yourself from the competition at the perfect time, in front of a large grouping of your top potential clients.
